Hi
I know there is a thread like this below but I would like a definitive answer.

I have a pair of Sporasub H Dessaults.

I broke a blade.

Can I buy a pair of Omer Millenium blades and just fit them straight in or is there any modification that I need to do ?

The reason I ask is that I can get Omer blades from www.apnea.co.uk for about £16.50 (per blade I think...)
If I get the sporsub replacements then it will be about £25 per blade with postage from scubastore...

The annoying thing is that I have ordered a pair of waterway Nemos (all in for £73 - nice price !) but they have yet to come....

Any ideas ?

I am currently sharing a pair with a mate - he broke a blade too - I think that there is a design flaw in where the rail joins the blade. You wont notice it on the black blades but on the blue ones you can see the plastic deform and weaken (paler blue plastic that spreads across the blade).
Anyway we take it in turns to use the cobbled together sporas and a pair of Mares Quattro fins.
Cheers
Ed
 
I think it's possible, but you might need to clip a rubber protuberance at the end of the rail (to make the rail go all the way).
I'm not 100% sure about that though, that's why I didn't post on the previous thread.
